Using Poseray you can get real HDRI lighting around a Poser scene for free by rendering with Megapov instead of Povray. Megapov is an unofficial version of Povray with extra features like HDRI. In short: - create your Poserscene, lights are not important, save it. - export to .obj - start Poseray and import your scene, ignore the lights. - save as .pov scene - open .pov scene with Megapov, delete lights that remain and replace with a HDRI light (examples are included with Megapov). - render ! Povray scenes give nice results with Megapov and HDRI. I wasn't able to get the same 'stunning' results with a Poser scene. I suspect that the small scale of Poser scenes has something to do with it. (even Poser 5's Firefly has problems with it). I have to experiment some more with scaling the poser scene 100 times or so. Time, time, time ... ;=) Yvo
